Stormig Posted October 31, 2003 Report Share Posted October 31, 2003 Coincidence that today I was reading http://www.silk-road.com and my eyes briefly passed over Ibn Battuta's name...There WAS a certain Joughayetsi listed among the names, though...As for the answer to your question, no.

bellthecat Posted October 31, 2003 Report Share Posted October 31, 2003 Does anyone know anything about Ibn Battuta discovering Armenian populated city near Shanghai ? Isn't it just that there was a city in China named "Arminia" (or something similar)? It's a while ago that I read Ibn Battuta's writing, and even then I only really quickly glanced at it, but I think I remember it was something like that.
